DEDICATION

APOTHECARY
I N
ENGLAND.
S I R,
I Have often faid, and I am ftill
of the fame opinion, that a to-
tal abolition of the Faculty of
Medicine, with all its appendages,
would more effectually prevent the
depopulation of this kingdom, than
any law that could poflibly be deviled;
that it were, upon the whole, much

better for the people to depend for
the reftoration of health on their own
fagacity, and the advice of old wo-
men, than fubjeft themfelves to be
poifoned by an ignorant Phyfician,
Apothecary, Quack, or Retailer of
Noftrums.
I do not deny that many lives
might be faved by the fkilful admini-
fixation of proper medicines; but a
thoufand indifputable fails convince
me, that the prefent eftablifhed prac-
tice of Phyfic in England is infinitely
definitive of the lives of his Majefty's
fubjects. I prefer the pra&ice of old
women, becaufe they do not fport
with edged tools : being unacquaint-
ed with the powerful articles of the
Materia Medica^ their prefcriptions

are generally innoxious, and therefore
they do but little mifchief. An ig-
norant PraEiitioner, on the contrary,
quite familiar with every article in the
Difpenfary, with a total incapacity
of diftinguifhing one difeafe from an-
other, yet perfectly convinced of his
knowledge in the art of healing,
without the leaft hefitation, bleeds,
blifters, clyfters; and then fends a
bafket of draughts to be taken every
four hours, compofed of the mod:
powerful drugs in his fhop.
Contrary to his prediction, the pa-
tient becomes every hour worfe and
worfe. The family is alarmed, and
a phyfician is called in. What is to
be done? Nothing! The time for

adminiftering relief is elapfed. The
patient dies. In acute difeafes, ca-
pital miftakes at the beginning can
never be remedied by the moft fkilful
Phyiician.
Such, however, is the general routine
of practice in this kingdom. The
Apothecary is confulted at the im-
portant period of the diforder, and the
Phyfician is called in at a time when
the fruits of his education, his know-
ledge, and abilities can be of no fer-
vice.
At what period of our hiftory, and
by what ftrange infatuation, this ab-
furd, this inverted pra&ice of Phyfic
began, is of little confequence. It is
fufficient that we know it to be uni-

verfally and irremoveably eftabliflicd.
The generality of mankind reafon
leafi in matters of moji importance.
Confirmed habits never yield to argu-
ment. The reafoning of a Locke,
the eloquence of a Cicero, will
never perfuade any of your patients
to call in a Phyfician, until you have
hinted your apprehensions of danger.
You will certainly continue to be firft
fent for; and the family, confiding
in your extenfive prafticc, will form
their opinions concerning the nature
and danger of the patient's diforder
on your report. It is evident, there-
fore, that you precede the Phyfician
both in time and importance, if it be
true, that the firft ftageof acute dif-
eafes is the mod important period ;
and
DEDICATION.
and 1 dare fay, Sir, you have feen
enough of difeafes to convince you
of that truth. But I will go a ftep
farther ; I aver, that the firft ftage is
the only important period of acute
difeafes ; and that a careful nurfe will
conduft a patient with fafety through
mojt (I had almoft faid all) ideopa-
thic fevers, known in this climate, if
rationally diredled in the beginning.
Hence it follows, that the pre-
eminence of a Phyfician confifts folely
in the fuperiority of his rank in fo-
ciety ; in his having had an academi-
cal education, and in being, generally,
a man of letters and of fcience. In
the line of Phyfic he is of mighty little
confequence: fo little, that his at-
tendance might commonly be fpared,

if he were not confidered as the necef-
farv ultimate article of pageantry to
expiring grandeur.
If there be no mifreprefentation in
what I have written, it appears that
the lite of every individual in England
is in the hands of fome Apothecary.
You fee, Sir, the important, the
aweful truft repofed in you by the
whole nation, and you cannot avoid
perceiving your high confequence in
the community. Members of Parlia-
ment and Minifters of State are the
guardians of the people's property
only.
A Phyfician may be a dull, infipid,
illiterate, ignorant blockhead, without

any detriment to the nation ; but the
penetration, the fagacity, the medi-
cal erudition of every Apothecary is
infeparably connected with the popu-
lation, and confequent profperity of
the ftate. It feems, therefore, indif-
penfibly requifite, that every gentle-
man of your profeflion fhould, in the
mod important of all fciences, ex-
plore every poflible fource of informa-
tion. If the Geeeks, the Romans,
the Arabians, have, in their writings,
bequeathed to pofterity any medical
knowledge worth acquiring, learning
thefe languages fhould make a part of
your education ; nor are the modern
tongues, particularly Italian, French,
and German, lefs neceflary, as there
are many excellent books on medical

that have never been tranflated.
The fciences of Anatomy, Chemif-
try, Botany, Phifiology, Patholagy,
Theory and Pradlice of Phyfic, are,
I think, generally confidered as necef-
fary branches of a regular medical
education. Now, though thefe fci-
ences may be of no ufe to Phyfi-
cians de jure, you, who are Phyfi-
cians de faSlo, ought certainly to rc-
fide a fufficient time at fome uni-
versity where they are taught. But,
as in your prefent fituation, that may
be inconvenient, in order to prevent,
